Canadian Boating Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

For what situations is having an axe on board especially recommended?

Fishing

Sailing competitions

Emergency situations

Having an axe on board can be useful in emergency situations where the need for survival outweighs other aspects such as fishing or decorative purposes. While having an axe may provide a slight advantage in fishing or sailing competitions, it is not necessary and can be detrimental to performance. Furthermore, using an axe for decorative purposes is unnecessary and poses a safety hazard. Therefore, the most practical reason for having an axe on board is for emergency situations where it can be used for survival needs such as cutting wood for fires or building shelter.
